Brussels Sprout and Bacon Pizza is a match made in heaven and a FOUR INGREDIENT recipe! A white pie with seared brussels sprouts, crunchy bacon, and mozzarella cheese baked on a cast iron pizza pan until bubbly with a whole wheat crust. YUM.
Let pizza dough come to room temperature for at least 20 minutes.
Place cast iron pizza pan (or baking stone/sheet) in oven and preheat to 500 degrees F.
In a cast iron or other heavy skillet, cook the four slices of bacon over medium high heat until crispy. Remove and place on paper towels to drain. Chop roughly when cooled.
Add the 8 oz. brussels sprouts and salt and pepper to taste to the skillet (in the bacon grease) and cook over medium-high heat until seared and tender (about 5-7 minutes).
Meanwhile, roll out pizza dough on a floured pizza paddle. Drizzle top of crust with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Remove pizza pan or stone from the oven and slide the crust from the pizza paddle (carefully!) on top.
Mix together 1/2 of the mozzarella, the chopped bacon, and cooked brussels sprouts in a small bowl. Spread on top of crust. Top with remaining mozzarella.
Place pizza in oven and cook for another 7-10 minutes at 500 degrees, or until cheese is melted and beginning to brown.
Slice and serve!
